Taiwan-headquartered EVA Air signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with freight forwarder AIT Worldwide Logistics (AIT) to jointly advance EVA Air’s Green Transportation Program over the next two years. Read More » In the first year of the collaboration, EVA Air will provide approximately 15,000 metric tons of CO₂e in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) environmental attributes to Microsoft, helping reduce the Scope 3 emissions associated with air transportation of its cloud infrastructure equipment. Microsoft and Formosa Petrochemical Corporation (FPCC) also attended the signing ceremony, demonstrating a shared goal across the aviation, energy, logistics, and technology sectors to accelerate the adoption of lower-carbon air transportation.

The flights supporting this collaboration will depart from Taiwan using SAF supplied by FPCC. The associated SAF environmental attributes will be issued and retired through the ISCC Credit Transfer System (CTS), an internationally recognized registry for tracking sustainability attributes, enabling Microsoft to account for the resulting Scope 3 emissions reductions associated with air freight transportation.

“Achieving net-zero aviation requires collaboration across the entire value chain—from airlines and fuel suppliers to logistics providers and corporate customers. This collaboration demonstrates that when customer demand is aligned with industry resources, it can accelerate the development of the SAF market. We look forward to working with more partners to make lower-carbon air transportation the new standard for global supply chains,” said Clay Sun, President of EVA Air.
